Smellie,
I haven't purchased a bolt or sling for the rifle yet. I am debating on the $$, since I am SOOOO close on finishing my 1920, 1903 Springfield.
I would just hate to get caught up with, "Gee we sold the last bolt".... type scenario... if I don't move on it soon.
I am not a Carcano collector, but may look into it further. These are interesting rifles, with a pretty nifty history. As the other MAJOR WWII weapons continue to become over collected, eventually these should go up in price a bit.... for right now tho... I think I have found something I can afford to collect!! LOL!
I agree 100% on your assessment of Govt interference...

I am delighted to see that the treacle rifle turned out so well. As jmoore wrote, the wood looks fine, so leave it as it is and just feed it a few drops of linseed oil every week or so.

I was able to get all the Carcano parts I needed for my M38 at Numrich. They sell the middle band with screw and ring for the sling.
